Los tronos de taburete amarillo dorado se alternan con cuadrados y rayas en blanco y negro en esta atrevida bufanda kente de algodón. La familia Gobah Tengey-Seddoh de Ghana selecciona el Fiazikpui patrón para una bufanda de tres tiras de tela.

El motivo Fiazikpui se crea principalmente en la trama o hilos horizontales del telar. El diseño, que significa "asiento de un rey", se originó en el siglo XIV para honrar a uno de los jefes principales o reyes de lo que ahora es Ghana.

Cada tira requiere un esfuerzo considerable, y los telares se trabajan tanto con las manos como con los pies. Las tiras son generalmente de tres a cuatro pulgadas de ancho y siete a diez pies de largo, y el tiempo que lleva completar una tira varía según la complejidad del patrón elegido.

Beautiful work - Yet incorrect description!”

The description and card for the scarf named Healing is the same as for the scarf named Victory. Thease lines in particular are misleading Combining shades of pale gray and black...Gray derives its symbolism from ash, used for healing and cleansing rituals. I thought there was an issue with my screen or the photo causing the scarf to look yellow - but once received the scarf is definitely a sickly pale yellow and not gray or ash as described. This is very disappointing as I valued the symbolism of ash & healing.
